Mr McCORMACK (Riverina—Deputy Prime Minister, Minister for Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development and Leader of The Nationals) (14:19): I hear the shadow infrastructure minister say, 'Less is more,' but, in the infrastructure portfolio, we are providing more. We are providing $75 billion—a record amount of infrastructure—and the shadow minister for infrastructure knows full well that we are making sure that we build the roads, the ports, the aviation and the railway lines for getting people home sooner and safer. But more to the— The SPEAKER: I'd say to the Deputy Prime Minister: I've tried to be generous, but I can't see how the answer's in order now! Mr McCORMACK: Sure. More to the shadow minister's question: I stand by everything that I've said in this House. I have never misled this House. I have not misled the parliament. And, indeed, I stand by everything that I've said, both in this House and as a member of parliament—just like I stand by the fact that I stood by my irrigators when the member for Watson threatened to take their water away from them, and just like I stood by my electorate when Labor members threatened to take away all the Building Better Regions programs that were put in place. I stood by them, just like I've stood by the fact that we are investing in our regions, when, under Labor, regional funding programs went to the member for Lalor's electorate when Julia Gillard was the member, and to the member for Watson's electorate, when they should have been going to country electorates. I've always stood up for regional people. I always will stand up for regional people. And I stand by the comments I made then. I stand by the comments I make now.
